i SNITH SURROUNDED " BY WLD THRONG (Continued from First Page) expected to be made until after he reaches the state capitol. Conferences Planned A series of conferences with state party leaders has been planncd for the nominee soon after his arrival in Rochester. He will address the con- vention there tonight on the political situation in the state. Whether he will confine his remarks to the party | record of the last two years or ex- | tend them to embrace his views on | the republican state ticket and plat- | form had not been determined early today. The speech will be broadcast over an extensive hookup. While he would not indicate his gubernatorial choice, the governor would say one | thing. and that was he was sure, for | the first time-since 1918, that he | would not be the nominee. | Summarizing what he believed | had been accomplished by his first {wo weeks' campaigning tour, Gov Smith had this to say to newspaper- ment I think T have brought home to the people all the issues T spoke| about. T think I gave them some | pretty good plain talks on the things | that sere brought up in the course of the two weeks' travel, and T am satisfled that it was very effective’ Pressed for an elaboration of his reaction. taking in the farm aues- tion. the nominee replied: says “Mouthful” | “There is not anything more to be said about that. What I said about it is a mouthful.” The governor based his statement on “the large number of telegrams that keep following this train and by what 1 hear from the people that listen=d in on the radio.” Asked if he thought the type of campaigning he followed had justi- | fled itself. he said: 1 think the people of this country are fed up on set speeches with| meaningless phrases in them. There is no doubt about that. T think it fs an innovation to talk right ont. talk plainly and give them. as I put it in St. Paul, the ‘low down’ on the | situation they never get in set| speeches.” Feels Fine, He Says The governor said he felt fine and he looked it when he appeared in the club car for his last press con- ference en route. “I never felt hetter in my life,” wes the way he put it. “My voice is as good as it ever was. If there is | any doubt about how I feel, let me | say that I had a belt line steak with | friend potatoes for breakfast. Sick | people do not cat those things Asked if he sti'! was of the opin- jon that there is no dominant issu in the campaign, he replied that never had entertained such a be- lef. 1 said the issues were all related to the one big question of what i best for the country,” he explained. | Crowds Gather | Speeding eastward from Milwau- kee, Gov. Smith was the object of noisy grestings from crowds along th: same route he weeks ago while going westward. At Chicago hundreds of well-wishers | appegged in the train yards just be- fore sundown to shake his hand and shout the name of “Al" until they | were hoarse. They remained more than an hour while the special was switched from the Chicago, Mil- waukee, St. Paul and Pacific to the | New York Central Lines. Another | crowd turned up at Elkhart, Ind., and a Toledo, 0., group gave them a bedtime cheer around 1iidnight. Wagner Aboard Senator Wagner, demo rat, New York, boarded the train at Milwau- Le: to accompany the party to Rochester or the state convention. He had been campcigning in Wis- consin. 1t remained for the last day of the long journey to give the nominee's party its worst . 'arc. As the crowd | in the Chicago y: rds pushing against the rear of the train, eager to grasp the governor’s hand, the long line of suddenly started backing.

Important This Year Politically, town elections have |only incidental bearing upon the na- tional and state elections next month but to the republican anJ state chairmen alike there is more than ordinary inter- |est in conditions which will be de- veloped in the tewn meetinga. the to mitteeman T. J. Spellacy of democrats has been appealing his state organization under § Chairman J. J. Walsh, to canvass intensively in city and town to se- cure as many registrations and “to be made voters” as possible on th broad ground that through orga: zation and house to house work the full democratic registration and democratic vote could be obtained, and if obtained, Mr. 8pellacy claim- ed the democrats could carry Con- necticut for Gov. Smith. On the re- publican side National Committee- man J. Henry Roraback has been organizing his town gmmittees and mem- bers to do just the same kind of work that the democrats have been doing. Both Parties Enthused What both chairmen have ac- complished in the way of organizi- tion is expected to he shown to greater or less extent by the fi.a out of town electors in town meet- State Chairman Rora In the first place national com-, ate back already has predicted that re- publican registration in anticipation of the hational election has been the greatest on record. ' The democrats have been quite enthusiastic over results they have secured. In the towns there are few mat- ters of busimess or pofitics ~which have general -tate interest. Most of them will receive reports and make the appropriations for the current year. Officers will be chés- en and usually there is some let- down of partisanship. If the out- and-out party vote is to be made a matter of comparison usually the vote for registrar is taken because each major party elects one and party members as a rule vote “straight” on this office.
